Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended May 31, 2011
(in thousands of Canadian dollars, unless otherwise noted)
Starfield Resources Inc. (“Starfield” or “the Company”) was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta, Canada). The Company’s major business activity is the exploration and development of mineral properties in North America. The Company is listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange with it’s corporate office at 120 Adelaide Street West, Suite 900, Toronto, Canada. The Company has the following non-producing interests:
| • | the Ferguson Lake nickel-copper-platinum-palladium-cobalt property located in Nunavut, Canada. (“Ferguson Lake Property”); |
| • | the Stillwater Project, a nickel-copper-cobalt and chromium property located in Montana, USA, adjacent to the Stillwater Platinum Mine; |
| • | the Moonlight Project, a copper-silver property located in California, and |
| • | two Nevada gold properties. |
1. Nature of Operations
The business of mining and exploring for minerals involves a high degree of risk and there can be no assurance that current exploration programs will result in profitable mining operations. The recoverability of the carrying value of exploration properties is dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to raise financing, the achievement of profitable operations or, alternatively, upon the Company’s ability to dispose of its interests on an advantageous basis. Changes in future conditions could require material write-downs of the carrying values. Some of the Company’s mining assets are located outside of Canada and are subject to the risk of foreign investment, including currency exchange fluctuations.
These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company's ability to continue to do so is dependent on the ability of the Company to raise equity financing and the attainment of profitable operations. There are no assurances that the Company will be successful in achieving these goals. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except financial instruments that have been measured at fair value. The condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars except when otherwise indicated.
2. Statement of Compliance
The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles as set out in the Handbook of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (“CICA Handbook”). In 2010, the CICA Handbook was revised to incorporate International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), and to require publicly accountable enterprises to apply such standards effective for years beginning on or after January 1, 2011. Accordingly, the Company has commenced reporting on this basis in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements. In these financial statements, the term “Canadian GAAP” refers to Canadian GAAP before the adoption of IFRS.
These unaudited condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”). They do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements. IFRS 1, First-time Adoption of IFRS (“IFRS 1”) has been applied and the impact of the transition from Canadian GAAP to IFRS is explained in note 16. Previously, the Company prepared its financial statements in accordance with Canadian GAAP
STARFIELD RESOURCES INC. | 6
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended May 31, 2011
(in thousands of Canadian dollars, unless otherwise noted)
The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented including preparing the opening balance sheet at March 1, 2010 (note 16) for purposes of transition to IFRS.
The policies applied in these interim consolidated financial statements are based on IFRS issued and outstanding as of July 21, 2011, the date the Board of Directors approved the statements. Any subsequent changes to IFRS that are given effect in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ending February 28, 2012 could result in restatement of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements, including the transition adjustments recognized on change-over to IFRS.
These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Canadian GAAP annual financial statements for the year ended February 28, 2011. Note 16 discloses IFRS information that is material to an understanding of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Where material, the interim condensed consolidated financial statements also include required annual IFRS disclosures if the same disclosure was not previously made under Canadian GAAP.
3. Significant Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates and assumptions are continually evaluated and are based on management's experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual outcomes can differ from these estimates.
Significant assumptions about the future and other sources of estimation uncertainty that management has made at the balance sheet date, that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, in the event that actual results differ from assumptions made, relate to, but are not limited to, the following:
a) Mineral properties
The application of the Group's accounting policy for mineral properties requires judgment in determining whether it is likely that future economic benefits are likely, which may be based on assumptions about future events or circumstances. Estimates and assumptions made may change if new information becomes available. If, after expenditure is capitalized, information becomes available suggesting that the recovery of expenditure is unlikely, the amount capitalized is written down to the estimated recoverable amount in the consolidated statement of income in the period when the new information becomes available.
b) Contingencies:
By their nature, contingencies will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The assessment of contingencies inherently involves the exercise of significant judgment and estimates of the outcome of future events.
c) Recovery of future income tax assets:
Judgment is required in determining whether future income tax assets are recognized on the consolidated balance sheet. Future income tax assets, including those arising from un-utilized tax losses, require management to assess the likelihood that the Group will generate taxable earnings in future periods in order to utilize recognized deferred tax assets. Estimates of future taxable income are based on forecasted cash flows from operations and the application of existing tax laws in each jurisdiction. Future income tax assets are recorded to recognize tax benefits only to the extent that, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that they will be realized.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended May 31, 2011
(in thousands of Canadian dollars, unless otherwise noted)
d) Fair value estimates for stock options:
Stock based compensation is accounted for using the fair market value method. Under this method, stock option expense is determined by the Black-Scholes option pricing model using amounts that are believed to approximate the volatility of the trading price of the Company’s stock, the expected lives of awards of stock-based compensation, the fair value of the Company’s stock and the risk-free interest rate.
4. Significant accounting policies
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in thousands of Canadian dollars except where otherwise indicated. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except financial instruments that have been measured at fair value.
a) Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of the Company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates (“the functional currency”). The Company’s functional currency, as determined at the transition date of March 1, 2010, is the Canadian Dollar (“CDN”). The unaudited interim financial statements for the three month period ended May 31, 2011 are presented in CDN Dollars which is the Company’s presentation currency.
b) Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated interim financial statements comprise the financial statements of Starfield Resources Inc. and its subsidiaries as at May 31, 2011.
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date of formation or acquisition, being the date on which the Group obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies.
All intra-Group balances, income and expenses and unrealized gains and losses resulting from intra-Group transactions are eliminated in full.
c) Foreign currency translation
The Canadian dollar is the functional currency of the Company and all of its subsidiaries.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Canadian dollars at the period end exchange rates, whereas non-monetary assets, liabilities and related expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate in effect on the date of the transaction. Exchange gains and losses resulting from the transaction of these amounts are included in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss.
d) Business combinations
In the transition to IFRS, the Company elected not to restate business combinations prior to January 1, 2010. Accordingly, amounts recognized in these consolidated financial statements for those acquisitions are based on Canadian GAAP.
For acquisitions on or after January 1, 2010, the acquisition method is applied to all business combinations whereby the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are measured at fair value on the date of acquisition.
The fair value of the consideration transferred for the acquisition of a business is the fair value of the assets transferred, the liabilities assumed, and the equity interests issued by the Company at the date of exchange. Goodwill is initially measured at fair value being the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the acquiree’s net identifiable assets acquired. When the consideration transferred is less than the fair value of the net identifiable assets, the gain is recognized immediately in earnings.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended May 31, 2011
(in thousands of Canadian dollars, unless otherwise noted)
Transaction costs such as finder’s fees, legal fees, other professional and consulting fees, and the due diligence fees are expensed as incurred unless they are costs related to the issue of debt or equity instruments.
e) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are highly liquid investments, such as term deposits with Canadian chartered banks, convertible into cash with maturities within one year.
f) Flow-through common shares
Flow-through common shares are recognized in equity based on the quoted price of the existing shares on the date of the issue. The difference between the amount recognized in common shares and the amount the investor pays for the shares is recognized as a deferred gain which is reversed into earnings as eligible expenditures are incurred. The deferred tax impact is recorded as eligible expenditures are incurred, provided the Company has the intention to renounce the related tax benefits.
g) Exploration, evaluation and development expenditure
Mineral resource properties are carried at cost. The Company considers exploration and development costs and expenditures to have the characteristics of property, plant and equipment and, as such, the Company capitalizes all exploration costs, which include license acquisition costs, advance royalties, holding costs, field exploration and field supervisory costs and all costs associated with exploration and evaluation activities relating to specific properties as incurred, until those properties are determined to be economically viable for mineral production. General and administrative costs are only included in the measurement of exploration and evaluation costs where they are related directly to activities in a particular area of interest.
Once a project has been established as commercially viable and technically feasible, related development expenditure is capitalized. This includes costs incurred in preparing the site for mining operations. Capitalization ceases when the mine is capable of commercial operations. After the determination of economic feasibility and at the commencement of pre-production activities these deferred exploration costs will be transferred to mining properties.
The actual recovery value of capitalized expenditures for mineral properties and deferred exploration costs will be contingent upon the discovery of economically viable reserves and the Company’s financial ability at that time to fully exploit these properties or determine a suitable plan of disposition.
Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment when facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of exploration and evaluation assets may exceed its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of the exploration and evaluation assets is estimated to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in previous years.
Where a decision is made to proceed with development in respect of a particular area of interest, the relevant exploration and evaluation asset is tested for impairment, reclassified to development properties, and then amortized over the life of the reserves associated with the area of interest once mining operations have commenced.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended May 31, 2011
(in thousands of Canadian dollars, unless otherwise noted)
h) Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. The cost of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price, any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management and the estimated close down and restoration costs associated with the asset.
Amortization of property, plant and equipment is calculated on the following basis:
Asset category | Useful life |
Exploration equipment | 30%declining balance |
Furniture and fixtures | 20% declining balance |
Leasehold improvement | straight line over 18 months |
Equipment under capital lease | 30% declining balance |
Residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date. Changes to the estimated residual values or useful lives are accounted for prospectively.
i) Leased assets
Leases in terms of which the Company assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Upon initial recognition the leased asset is measured at an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Subsequent to initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy applicable to that asset. The Company does not have any financial leases.
The Company has operating leases and payments are expensed as incurred on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss.
j) Provisions
Currently the Company does not have any environmental disturbances of its mineral properties.
Provisions for environmental restoration are recognized when: (i) the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past exploration, development or production events; (ii) it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; (iii) and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions do not include any additional obligations which are expected to arise from future disturbance.
Costs are estimated on the basis of a formal report and are subject to regular review.
Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. When estimates of obligations are revised, the present value of the changes in obligations is recorded in the period by a change in the obligation amount and a corresponding adjustment to the mineral interest asset (note 7).
The amortization or “unwinding” of the discount applied in establishing the net present value of provisions due to the passage of time is charged to the statement of operations in each accounting period.
The ultimate cost of environmental remediation is uncertain and cost estimates can vary in response to many factors including changes to the relevant legal requirements, the emergence of new restoration techniques or experience at other mine sites. The expected timing of expenditure can also change, for example in response to changes in ore reserves or production rates. As a result there could be significant adjustments to the provisions for restoration and environmental cleanup, which would affect future financial results.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended May 31, 2011
(in thousands of Canadian dollars, unless otherwise noted)
Funds on deposit with third parties to provide for reclamation costs are included in reclamation deposits on the balance sheet.
k) Share-based payments
The grant date fair value of share-based payment awards granted to employees is recognized as an employee expense, with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period that the employees unconditionally become entitled to the awards. The amount recognized as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which the related service and non-market vesting conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognized as an expense is based on the number of awards that do meet the related service and non-market performance conditions at the vesting date. For share-based payment awards with non-vesting conditions, the grant date fair value of the share-based payment is measured to reflect such conditions and there is no adjustment for differences between expected and actual outcomes.
Share-based payment arrangements in which the Company receives goods or services as consideration for its own equity instruments are accounted for as equity-settled share-based payment transactions.
l) Income taxes
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current and deferred tax are recognized in profit or loss to the extent that it relates to a business combination or items recognized directly in equity.
Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.
Deferred tax is recognized using the balance sheet method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes.
Deferred tax is measured at the rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax is not recognized for the following temporary differences; the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities to the extent that it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future. In addition, deferred tax is not recognized for taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill which is not deductible for tax purposes.
A deferred tax asset is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized. To the extent that the Company does not consider it probable that a future tax asset will be recovered, it provides a valuation allowance against that excess.
The Company has certain non-monetary assets and liabilities for which the tax reporting currency is different from its functional currency. Any translation gains or losses on the remeasurement of these items at current exchange rates versus historic exchange rates that give rise to a temporary difference is recorded as a deferred tax asset or liability.
m) Net Profit (Loss) Per Common Share
Basic profit (loss) per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. The Company uses the treasury stock method for calculating diluted earnings per share which assumes that stock options with an exercise price lower than the average quoted market price were exercised at the later of the beginning of the year, or time of issue. Stock options with an exercise price greater than the average quoted market price of the common shares are not included in the calculation of diluted profit per share as the effect is anti-dilutive.

n) Financial assets and liabilities
Financial assets within the scope of IAS 39 are classified as either financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments or available-for-sale financial assets, as appropriate. When financial assets are recognized initially, they are measured at fair value, plus, in the case of financial assets not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs. The Company determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition and, where allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates this designation at each financial year end.
The Company’s financial instruments are comprised of the following:
Financial assets: | Classification: |
| |
Cash and cash equivalents | Fair value through profit or loss |
Short-term deposits | Fair value through profit or loss |
Amounts receivable | Loans and receivables |
| |
Financial liabilities: | Classification: |
| |
Accounts payable and other liabilities | Other financial liabilities |
(i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss:
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss includes financial assets held for trading and financial assets designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss.
(ii) Loans and receivables:
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market, do not qualify as trading assets and have not been designated as either fair value through profit or loss or available-for-sale. After initial measurement, loans and receivables are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method less any allowance for impairment. Amortized cost is calculated taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and includes fees that are an integral part of the effective interest rate and transaction costs. Gains and losses are recognized in the consolidated statement of operations when the loans and receivables are derecognized or impaired, as well as through the amortization process.
(iii) Available for sale investments
Financial assets classified as available-for-sale are measured at fair value, with changes in fair values recognized in other comprehensive income, except when there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired, at which point the cumulative loss that had been previously recognized in other comprehensive income is recognized within the consolidated statement of operations.
(iv) Fair value:
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy establishes three levels to classify the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value.
Level 1: Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. 11

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended May 31, 2011
(in thousands of Canadian dollars, unless otherwise noted)
Level 2: Inputs are quoted prices in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (for example, interest rate and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals, forward pricing curves used to value currency and commodity contracts, volatility measurements used to value option contracts and observable credit default swap spreads to adjust for credit risk where appropriate), or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data or other means.
Level 3: Inputs are unobservable (supported by little or no market activity). The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.
The Company’s financial assets measured at fair value, as at May 31, 2011 and February 28, 2011, which include cash and cash equivalents, short-term deposits, long-term guaranteed investment and marketable securities are classified as a Level 1 measurement.
(v) Impairment of financial assets:
Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at each financial reporting date. Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been impacted. Evidence of impairment could include:
| • | significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty; or |
| • | default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; or |
| • | it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organization. |
The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of amounts receivable, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When an amount receivable is considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized in profit or loss. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment reversed does not exceed what the amortized cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized.
o) New standards and interpretations not yet adopted
IFRS 7 Financial instruments - Disclosures (“IFRS 7”) was amended by the IASB in October 2010 and provides guidance on identifying transfers of financial assets and continuing involvement in transferred assets for disclosure purposes. The amendments introduce new disclosure requirements for transfers of financial assets including disclosures for financial assets that are not derecognized in their entirety, and for financial assets that are derecognized in their entirety but for which continuing involvement is retained. The amendments to IFRS 7 are effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2011. The Company has not yet determined the impact of the amendments to IFRS 7 on its financial statements.
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”) was issued in November 2009 and contained requirements for financial assets. This standard addresses classification and measurement of financial assets and replaces the multiple category and measurement models in IAS 39 for debt instruments with a new mixed measurement model having only two categories: amortized cost and fair value through profit or loss. IFRS 9 also replaces the models for measuring equity instruments, and such instruments are either recognized at fair value through profit or loss or at fair value through other comprehensive income. This standard is required to be applied for accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, with earlier adoption permitted. The Company has not yet determined the impact of the amendments to IFRS 9 on its financial statements.

IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements (“IFRS 10”) provides a single model to be applied in the control analysis for all investees, including entities that currently are special purpose entities in the scope of SIC 12. In addition, the consolidation procedures are carried forward substantially unmodified from IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements. The Company intends to adopt IFRS 10 in its financial statements for the annual period beginning on March 1, 2013. The Company has not yet determined the impact of the amendments to IFRS 10 on its financial statements.
IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements (“IFRS 11”) replaces the guidance in IAS 31 Interests in Joint Ventures. Under IFRS 11, joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures. IFRS 11 essentially carves out of previous jointly controlled entities, those arrangements which although structured through a separate vehicle, such separation is ineffective and the parties to the arrangement have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities and are accounted for as joint operations in a fashion consistent with jointly controlled assets/operations under IAS 31. In addition, under IFRS 11 joint ventures are stripped of the free choice of equity accounting or proportionate consolidation; these entities must now use the equity method.
Upon application of IFRS 11, entities which had previously accounted for joint ventures using proportionate consolidation shall collapse the proportionately consolidated net asset value (including any allocation of goodwill) into a single investment balance at the beginning of the earliest period presented. The investment’s opening balance is tested for impairment in accordance with IAS 28 Investments in Associates and IAS 36 Impairment of Assets. Any impairment losses are recognized as an adjustment to opening retained earnings at the beginning of the earliest period presented. The Company intends to adopt IFRS 11 in its financial statements for the annual period beginning on March 1, 2013. The Company has not yet determined the impact of the amendments to IFRS 11 on its financial statements.
IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement converges IFRS and US GAAP on how to measure fair value and the related fair value disclosures. The new standard creates a single source of guidance for fair value measurements, where fair value is required or permitted under IFRS, by not changing how fair value is used but how it is measured. The focus will be on an exit price. IFRS 13 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after March 1, 2013, with early adoption permitted. The Company has not yet determined the impact of the amendments to IFRS 13 on its financial statements.

a) Ferguson Lake
The Company owns a 100% undivided interest in the Ferguson Lake nickel-copper-platinum-palladium-cobalt property, subject to a 3% net smelter royalty (“NSR”) on mineral production, a 3% gross overriding royalty on diamond production and a $50 annual advance NSR payment. The Company has the right to purchase 1% of the 3% NSR for $1,000 up to 180 days after receipt of a positive feasibility study recommending commercial production.
On October 5, 2009, the Company announced that it has signed a joint venture agreement with Thanda Resources Inc. (“Thanda”) to develop the Company’s previously identified diamond potential at the Ferguson Lake Project in Nunavut. The agreement gives Thanda the right to earn an initial 50% participating interest in a joint venture (that will focus on the exploration and development of the diamond potential at the Ferguson Lake property) by incurring cumulative exploration expenses of $6.5 million over a three year period. These expenditures must be incurred as follows:

(in thousands of Canadian dollars, unless otherwise noted)
Months 1 - 15 | $2.0 million |
Months 16 - 24 | $2.5 million |
Months 25 - 30 | $2.0 million |
After the initial $6.5 million investment, Thanda may choose to commence a prefeasibility study. Upon completion of a prefeasibility study, the Company may choose to either retain a 30% interest in the project by paying its pro-rata share of the costs of the prefeasibility study and future development, or convert to a 3% gross revenue royalty.
b) Stillwater Project
The Company holds the Stillwater Project consisting of the Basal Zone Lease Agreement and the Mountain View Lease Agreement in Montana, USA.
The Basal Zone Lease Agreement leases the Company mineral claims for 10 years expiring January 1, 2014. The Company is required to make payments of US$2 per month until the end of the lease. Under the Basal Zone Lease Agreement, a 2% production royalty is payable by the Company on the sales of ore and concentrate; a 2% NSR applies if the ore/concentrate is sold to a mill, smelter or refinery or 2% of net income applies if the ore/concentrate is not sold to a mill, smelter or refinery. If there is a federal royalty imposed on any sales, then 50% of such federal royalty will be offset against the production royalty payable by the Company.
The Mountain View Lease Agreement leases the Company mineral claims for 10 years expiring February 1, 2014. If the Company wishes to extend the primary term of the lease, then the Company must pay US$50. Upon the commencement of construction of a mine, the Company must pay a US$500 advance royalty, 50% of which will be credited against future production royalties. A 2% production royalty is payable by the Company on the sale of ore and concentrate, a 2% NSR applies if the ore/concentrate is sold to a mill, smelter or refinery or 2% of net income applies if the ore/concentrate is not sold to a mill, smelter or refinery.
In addition, the Company has signed an agreement to lease with an option to acquire the Benbow chromite mine which is adjacent to the Stillwater Project in Montana. The mine would be acquired under a Lease with Option to Purchase from the Benbow chromite mine, Limited Liability Partnership, (the “Owner”). The basic lease is for 25 years expiring July 14, 2033, unless the agreement is terminated, cancelled or extended. The terms of the agreement call for a signing bonus of US$50, with payments of US$50 on each of the first through fifth anniversaries, US$75 on each of the sixth through tenth anniversaries, US $100 on the eleventh and each subsequent anniversary of the effective date (“the Minimum Payments”). A 5% production royalty would be paid to the Owner, based on net proceeds from the production and sale of minerals from the property. The Minimum Payments shall constitute advance payments of the royalty on the property and shall be credited in the Company’s favor against royalty payment obligations.
The Company has the option to purchase the Benbow chromite mine property for US$5,000. If the option to purchase is exercised after the fifth anniversary, but before the tenth anniversary, the purchase price will be US$10,000. Alternatively, the Company has the option to purchase an undivided fifty percent interest in the property for US$5,000, subject to its right to purchase additional portions of ownership of and title to the property in increments representing 5% of the entire undivided ownership for US$500 for each such increment.
c) Moonlight Project
The Moonlight Project is comprised of the Teagan Claims and the California- Engels Claims.

(in thousands of Canadian dollars, unless otherwise noted)
Teagan Claims
The Company holds a 100% interest in certain claims, located in Plumas County, California, U.S.A. These claims are, however, subject to the terms of the exploration agreement with California-Engels Mining Company.
California-Engels Claims
In 2006, the Company entered into an exploration agreement, which contained an option to lease and purchase the underlying properties, enabling the Company to explore and purchase patented and fee lands that are located near the Company’s Moonlight Project, subject to a 2% NSR that is capped at US$25,000. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company is required to make annual payments of US$20.
The Company is also required to issue 139,200 common shares upon completion of a bankable feasibility study and upon construction of a mill. The Company may purchase the property at any time for US$10,000 or by issuing 696,000 common shares and paying an annual US$60 advance royalty.
d) Nevada Properties
The Company holds the Stealth property which is located in the state of Nevada, and the Dome Hill property which straddles the Nevada-California border. The Stealth property is leased to a third party.
During the three months ended May 31, 2011, the Company entered into an option agreement with a US gold company whereby they have the option to purchase the Dome Hill property over a three year period for a nominal amount. As the Company has determined that is no longer intends to pursue its interest in the Nevada properties, all accumulated costs have been written-off as at May 31, 2011.

11. Commitments
Leases

2012 | | $ | 219 | |
2013 | | | 128 | |
2014 | | | 97 | |
| | $ | 444 | |
12. Segmented Information

13. Capital Management
The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it, based on the funds available to the Company, in order to support the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties. The board of directors does not establish quantitative return on capital criteria for management, but rather relies on the expertise of the Company's management to sustain future development of the business.
The properties in which the Company currently has an interest are in the exploration stage; as such, the Company is dependent on external financing to fund its activities. In order to carry out the planned exploration and development, and pay for administrative costs, the Company will spend its existing working capital, and raise additional amounts as needed. The Company will continue to assess new properties, from time to time, and to acquire an interest in additional properties if it considers there to be sufficient geologic or economic potential, and if it has adequate financial resources to do so. Companies in this stage typically rely upon equity financing or joint venture partnerships to fund the advancement of projects. The current financial markets are very difficult and there is no certainty with respect to the Company’s ability to raise capital.

There were no changes in the Company's approach to capital management during the year ended February 28, 2011. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.
14. Financial Risk Factors
Financial instruments include cash and any contracts that give rise to a financial asset to one party and a financial liability or equity instrument to another party. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 - Inputs that are not based on observable market data.
Under the fair value hierarchy for 2011 and 2010, cash and cash equivalents would be considered a level 1 fair value measure.
The Company's risk exposures and the impact on the Company's financial instruments are summarized
below:
Credit risk
The Company's credit risk is primarily attributable to cash and amounts receivable. The Company has no significant concentration of credit risk arising from operations. Cash is classified as cash equivalents and consist of overnight deposits, which have been invested with reputable financial institutions, from which management believes the risk of loss to be remote. Financial instruments included in accounts receivables consist of harmonized sales tax due from the Federal Government of Canada. Management believes that the credit risk concentration with respect to financial instruments included in accounts receivables is remote.
Liquidity risk
The Company's approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due. As at May 31, 2011, the Company had a cash balance of $5,787 (February 28, 2011 - $3,884) to settle current liabilities of $1,102 (February 28, 2011 - $1,219). All of the Company's financial liabilities have contractual maturities of less than 30 days and are subject to normal trade terms.
Market risk
The Company has cash balances and no interest-bearing debt. The Company's current policy is to invest excess cash in investment-grade short-term deposit certificates issued by its banking institutions. The Company periodically monitors the investments it makes and is satisfied with the credit ratings of its banks.
The Company's functional currency is the Canadian dollar and major purchases are transacted in Canadian dollars. From time to time, the Company funds certain operations, exploration and administrative expenses in US dollars on a cash call basis using US dollar currency converted from its Canadian dollar bank accounts held in Canada. Management believes the foreign exchange risk derived from currency conversions is not significant and therefore does not hedge its foreign exchange risk. There is no foreign currency risk associated with future income tax as this is primarily a Canadian dollar liability.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended May 31, 2011
(in thousands of Canadian dollars, unless otherwise noted)
The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to commodity prices. Changes in commodity prices will impact the economics of development of the Company’s mineral properties. The Company closely monitors commodity prices to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company.
Sensitivity analysis
The Company has designated its cash and cash equivalents and short term investments as held-for-trading, which are measured at fair value. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities are classified as other financial liabilities, which are measured at amortized cost.
As at May 31, 2011, the carrying and fair value amounts of the Company's financial instruments are the same.
The Company does not hold significant balances in foreign currencies to give rise to exposure to foreign exchange risk.
15. Subsequent events
On June 17, 2011, the Corporation completed a private placement of 27,273,000 units at a price of $0.05 per unit for gross proceeds of $1.4 million. Each unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder to acquire one common share at an exercise price of $0.08 per share for a period of 24 months from the closing date.
16. Transition to IFRS
For all periods up to and including the year ended February 28, 2011, the Company prepared its financial statements in accordance with Canadian GAAP. These are the Company’s first IFRS interim consolidated financial statements for part of the period covered by the Company’s first IFRS annual consolidated financial statements for the year ending February 28, 2012.
Accordingly, the Company has prepared these condensed interim consolidated financial statements which comply with IFRS applicable for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2011 as described in the accounting policies. In preparing these financial statements, the Company’s opening consolidated statement of financial position was prepared as at March 1, 2010, the Company’s date of transition to IFRS. This note explains the principal adjustments made by the Company in restating its Canadian GAAP consolidated statement of financial position as at March 1, 2010 and its previously published Canadian GAAP financial statements for the year ended February 28, 2011.
(a) Exemptions applied
IFRS 1 requires accounting policies to be applied retrospectively to determine the opening statement of financial position at the Company’s transition date of March 1, 2010 and allows first-time adopters certain exemptions from the retrospective application on certain IFRSs. The Company has elected and applied the following exemptions:
| • | To apply IFRS 2 Share based Payments only to equity instruments that were issued after November 7, 2002 and had not vested by the Transition Date. |
| • | To apply IFRS 3 Business Combinations prospectively from the Transition Date, therefore not restating business combinations that took place prior to the Transition Date. |
STARFIELD RESOURCES INC. | 22
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended May 31, 2011
(in thousands of Canadian dollars, unless otherwise noted)
| • | To apply the IFRS 1 exemption which provides relief from the application of IFRIC 1, Changes in Existing Decommissioning Restoration and Similar Liabilities and therefore not retrospectively |
| • | calculating the effect on property, plant and equipment and depreciation of each change that occurred each period prior to the Transition Date. |
| • | To apply the transition provisions of IFRIC 4 Determining whether an Arrangement Contains a Lease, therefore determining if arrangements existing at the Transition Date contain a lease based on the circumstances existing at that date. The Company has no leases. |
| • | To apply IAS 23 Borrowing Costs prospectively from the transition date. IAS 23 requires the capitalization of borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, production or construction of certain assets. |
(b) Mandatory exceptions to retrospective application
IFRS 1 provides specific guidelines that a first-time adopter must adhere to under certain circumstances. The guideline pertaining to estimates applies to the Company, which prohibits the use of hindsight to create or revise estimates. Accordingly, the estimates previously made by the Company under Canadian GAAP are consistent with their application under IFRS.
(c) Reconciliation of equity and comprehensive loss as previously reported under Canadian GAAP to IFRS
The Company’s transition from Canadian GAAP to IFRS has resulted in a number of adjustments to its consolidated statement of financial position for March 1, 2010, May 31, 2010 and February 28, 2011 and consolidated statement of comprehensive loss for the three months ended May 31, 2010 and the year ended February 28, 2011. The adoption of IFRS has had no impact on the net cash flows of the Group. The changes made to the consolidated statement of financial position and the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss has resulted in reclassifications of various amounts on the consolidated statement of cash flows. However, as there have been no changes to the net cash flows, no reconciliations have been presented.
Further details of the adjustments to the consolidated statements of financial position and comprehensive loss are provided in the following reconciliations and the notes that accompany the reconciliations.
